CHICAGO — A suburban man was killed and a woman seriously injured in a head-on car crash on the city's Far South Side Tuesday morning, police said.

Timothy Schnur, 31, of Schaumburg, was pronounced dead on the scene, the Cook County medical examiner's office said.

A 50-year-old woman was taken with leg injuries to Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn and is in serious condition, said Officer Jose Estrada, a Chicago Police spokesman.

The crash occurred in the 3200 block of East 100th Street just east of the drawbridge over the Calumet River.
